Billbergia 
These are Bromeliads, related to 
the Pineapple. They are air plants 
that grow in nature like orchids on 
tree trunks or rocks. However, under 
cultivation they will grow and pros- 
per under nearly any condition. In 
pots they may be grown in peat, 
moss, orchid peat, leafmould, soil or 
any combination of the above. We 
find the most convenient medium to 
be 80% leafmould and 20% well rot-

and should be grown outdoors only 
during the warm weather except in
